- 1 cup fresh breadcrumb (REAL breadcrumbs! Store bought will be soggy!)

- 1⁄4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
- 6 garlic cloves (minced)

- 2 (6 ounce) cans minced clams (drained with juice reserved)
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 450.
- In a large saute pan, saute' onions, garlic, crushed red peppers and parsley in olive oil until just fragrant. Remove from heat.
- Add bread crumbs, clams, and parmesan to pan. Squirt the juice of 1 lemon into pan and add clam juice until desired consistency. The mixture should be on the dry side. If you use too much liquid it will come out "gummy".
